Subclaims¶
q2 i? The control group's pretest-posttest total score difference was significant (z = 3.515, p = .000) and favored the posttest, but negative ranks appeared (3 on total, 5 on maladaptation), which the article says makes the increase not completely positive. → Zelyurt and Ince 2018

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test on the 25 control-group children (Table 4): total z = 3.515, p = .000; social adaptation z = 3.375, p = .001; social maladaptation z = 2.176, p = .030, with negative ranks present. The article states the control students' development "was not as clear as the students who were exposed to peace education".
"There was no change in the negative rank in the study group, however changes in the negative rank were observed in the control group."
